Camping-Inspired Virginia Wedding at Montfair Resort Farm

August 13, 2017 | Junebug Weddings

Katey and Casey’s love blossomed while on a road trip through the mountains, so it’s no surprise that their wedding at Montfair Resort Farm was full of outdoorsy adventure and bohemian vibes. With the help of the the bride’s talented cousin from One Fine Day Artistry, the couple spent just give months putting together this truly unique camp-inspired wedding, which featured bright colors, natural textures, and tons of handmade details. Despite the time crunch, no detail was left unattended. There were blankets for the guests to use around the campfire, personalized mugs to fill with hot cider, dream-catchers adding life and color to every corner, and even a kayak filled with drinks to tie in the outdoor adventure feel. With so much detail and so much attention to artistry, we are so grateful that the couple found Leslie Swan Photography to capture it all so beautifully!

The Couple:

Katey and Casey

The Wedding:

Montfair Resort Farm, Crozet, Virginia

Looking back on our wedding day we both agree that our favorite part was the ceremony. Everything just felt so magical about it. The beautiful dark grey sky, the light breeze, and all of our family and friends gathered in front of the most beautiful mountain backdrop. We both couldn’t believe how perfect it was. Some highlights from the ceremony include Casey and the ring bearer both crying when I walked down the aisle, my brother reading an insert from one of our favorite books, “The Alchemist,” and exchanging our vows. It was something neither of us will ever forget!

One piece of planning advice I would give is don’t overthink things! We had a 5-month engagement, which meant I had to plan quick! Throughout the entire process, I always went with my first instinct and tried my best not to over-complicate things. In the end, I knew that marrying my best friend was far more important than any minor details.

Jewel Tone North Carolina Mountain Wedding at The Vineyards at Betty’s Creek

August 12, 2017 | Junebug Weddings

Chelsea and Andrew’s wedding day at The Vineyards at Betty’s Creek was as beautifully designed as it was heartfelt. Before the festivities of their day began, they wandered into the woods for an intimate first look and a truly emotional private vow exchange that set the tone for the entire day. Then it was time for a cozy outdoor ceremony in front of the venue’s rustic Honeymoon Cottage and a relaxed reception in the newly constructed pavilion that provided a perfect view of the mountains. We love that the couple chose a rich, jewel tone color palette of blues, greens, purples, and gold because of how seamlessly it fit in with the moody mountain setting and the rustic venue. Emily Chidester Photography not only captured every detail of this wedding beautifully, but she truly captured every heartfelt and emotional moment this couple shared throughout the day!

The Wedding:

Vineyards at Betty’s Creek, Sylvia, North Carolina

Our first look was very special. Along with seeing each other for the first time that day, we got the chance to privately say our vows to each other. We were both sobbing happy tears while we promised forever to each other. We just couldn’t believe we were finally getting married! We also loved the chance to be alone during such an exciting and busy day and process the wonderful journey we were about to embark on.

Our photographer, Emily, was the perfect fit for our wedding! Chelsea is a wedding photographer, as well, and both of us knew it was important to capture our day with all the emotions that went with it. Emily was great at making us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captured the details of our venue perfectly. Having someone who understood natural light and the “feel” that we were going for was essential and worth every penny. The photos we received from that day are priceless and bring us back every time we look at them. We are forever thankful for our wonderful photographer!

We ended up choosing our venue for one specific reason, the Lodge. We had family coming from all over the place (even overseas) and it was extremely important for our immediate family to be together during this time. The Lodge was a place on the venue grounds where they could all stay in the same space. This allowed our families some great memories together and time to enjoy the mountain view! While the Lodge was our main reason for selecting the venue, we ended up getting so much more than we thought with the construction of a new reception pavilion that was built only months before our date. It was the perfect spot to have a mountain wedding.

Relaxed Rustic California Wedding at Owl Creek Farms

August 12, 2017 | Junebug Weddings

Between the rustic venue, the vintage décor, and the soft summer color palette, Kate and Parker’s California wedding at Owl Creek Farms was as pretty as could be! Because their wedding took place on a working farm, the couple fully embraced the naturally rustic vibe, which fit perfectly with their casual beachy essence. The ceremony featured both a wood door entrance and a handmade floral backdrop, and the reception was accented with vintage furniture, gold details, and handmade signs. We love how the bride channeled her inner boho princess with a BHLDN gown and greenery-forward flower crown and kept her bridesmaids’ looks fresh and casual with short white dresses. The Family Films truly captured the essence and beauty of this California farm wedding!
